Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of automobile accessories, in particular to an actuator ice-breaking structure of a hidden handle. Background Art

[0002] Car handles are devices used to open doors. Common handles include conventional and hidden types. The hidden types are further divided into mechanical and electric types. Existing hidden car handles are flush with the sheet metal, which have the advantages of reducing wind resistance, reducing wind noise and being beautiful. They are becoming more and more popular among the public and are more in line with the development trend of the automotive industry. In cold weather, the current electric handles can be broken by the driving component because the handles are frozen. However, the ice-breaking force of the driving component is limited. When the amount of ice is sufficiently frozen, it is difficult to make the handle pop out even through the driving component, and the user cannot open the door, which has an inconvenient impact on the user's daily life. Utility Model Content

[0003] In view of the deficiencies in the prior art, the purpose of the utility model is to provide an actuator ice-breaking structure with a hidden handle.

[0004] The above technical purpose of the utility model is achieved through the following technical solutions: an actuator ice-breaking structure for a hidden handle, comprising a base, a handle arranged on the base, and an execution module for providing an opening force for the handle, the execution module comprising a push block that moves in the base, the push block being provided with an extrusion portion, a compression spring being provided between the extrusion portion and the base, the compression spring applying a force in the opening direction of the handle.

[0005] Furthermore, the handle has a closed position and an open position, and the execution module has an initial position and an ejection position corresponding to the closed position of the handle. In the initial position, the compression spring remains compressed. Through the above improvements, the execution module drives the handle to close and open, and when the execution module drives the handle to open, the compression spring releases the spring force to provide ice-breaking force.

[0006] Furthermore, a spring seat is provided on the base, and the compression spring is abutted between the spring seat and the extrusion portion. The end of the compression spring is fixed by the spring seat to ensure that the deformation direction of the compression spring is consistent with the movement direction of the execution module, thereby improving the ice-breaking effect.

[0007] Furthermore, a cover plate is provided on the base, and the cover plate shields the execution module. Through the above improvements, the compression spring and the push rod are prevented from popping out of the shell during operation to affect the ice-breaking effect. At the same time, the execution module is covered and protected to improve the aesthetics.

[0008] Furthermore, a guide seat is provided on the push block, a groove is provided on the base, and the guide seat abuts against the groove. Through the above improvements, the movement direction of the push block is limited, which is conducive to the push block providing an opening force for the handle.

[0009] Furthermore, the push block is provided with a plurality of convex ribs, which abut against the base and the cover plate. Through the above improvements, the movement direction of the push block is limited, and at the same time, the friction between the push block and the base and the cover plate during the movement is reduced.

[0010] Furthermore, the compression spring and the push block have the same actuation direction. Through the above improvements, the ice-breaking force can act better in the movement direction of the push block, thereby improving the ice-breaking effect.

[0011] Furthermore, a rocker arm is provided on the base, a through hole is provided on the rocker arm, a lever is provided at the end of the handle, and the lever passes through and abuts against the through hole. Through the above improvements, when the rocker arm rotates, the side wall of the through hole acts on the lever to realize the function of opening or closing the handle.

[0012] Furthermore, a rotating shaft is provided between the rocker arm and the base, and a torsion spring is sleeved on the rotating shaft. The torsion spring resets the rocker arm, and the torsion spring drives the handle from the open position to the closed position. Through the above improvements, the function of automatically switching the handle from the open position to the closed position is realized.

[0013] Furthermore, the push block abuts against the rocker arm, and the rocker arm drives the handle from the closed position to the open position. Through the above improvements, the function of the execution module controlling the opening and closing of the handle by exerting force on the rocker arm and driving the rocker arm is realized.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, the utility model has the following advantages and beneficial effects: the utility model includes a base, a handle arranged on the base, and an execution module that provides an opening force for the handle, wherein a push block that acts in the base is arranged in the execution module, and when the push block is in the initial position, the spring seat in the base and the extrusion seat on the push block squeeze the compression spring, thereby generating a compression force on the compression spring, and when the push block pushes out to open the handle, the compression spring releases the spring force to assist the push block in pushing out, thereby increasing the ice-breaking force of the execution module.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0025] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.

[0026] It should be understood that although the terms upper, middle, lower, top, end, etc. appear in this article to describe various elements, these elements are not limited by these terms. These terms are only used to distinguish elements from each other for easy understanding, and are not used to define any direction or order limitation.

[0027] like Figure 1-9 As shown, an actuator ice-breaking structure of a hidden handle includes a base 1, a handle 2 arranged on the base 1, and an execution module 3 for providing an opening force for the handle 2, wherein the execution module 3 includes a push block 4 that moves in the base 1, and the push block 4 is provided with an extrusion portion 5, and a compression spring 6 is provided between the extrusion portion 5 and the base 1, and the compression spring 6 applies a force to the handle 2 in the opening direction.

[0028] Preferably, the handle 2 has a closed position flush with the vehicle door and an open position protruding from the vehicle door. When the push block 4 is pushed out, the execution module 3 is in the ejected position, and the handle 2 is in the open position; when the push block 4 retracts, the execution module 3 is in the initial position, and the handle 2 is in the closed position, and the compression spring 6 remains compressed to ensure that the compression spring 6 provides ice-breaking force during the opening process.

[0029] Preferably, a spring seat 7 is provided on the base 1, and the compression spring 6 abuts between the spring seat 7 and the extrusion portion 5. The spring seat 7 is in a fixed state, and the extrusion portion 5 approaches or moves away from the spring seat 7 as the push block 4 expands and contracts. When the execution module 3 is in an initial state, the distance between the spring seat 7 and the extrusion portion 5 is the smallest. At this time, the compression spring 6 is squeezed by the extrusion portion 5 and the spring seat 7, and the deformation is the largest. At the moment the extrusion seat is pushed out, the compression spring 6 releases the spring force, which plays an auxiliary ice-breaking effect.

[0030] like Figure 1-2 As shown, as an embodiment of the utility model, extrusion parts 5 are provided at both ends of the push block 4, two sets of spring seats 7 and compression springs 6 are provided in the shell, and the push block 4 is designed to be rod-shaped. The compression springs 6 on both sides provide rebound force to assist the push block 4 to be pushed out, and the force is more stable, thereby improving the ice-breaking effect.

[0031] Preferably, a guide seat 9 is provided on the push block 4, a groove 10 is provided on the base 1, the guide seat 9 abuts against the groove 10, and the push block 4 reciprocates along the direction of the groove 10, which limits the movement direction of the push block 4 and further limits the direction of the ice-breaking force.

[0032] Preferably, the push block 4 is provided with a plurality of ribs 11, and the ribs 11 are arranged correspondingly on the side surface and the bottom of the push block 4. The cross-section of the ribs 11 is semicircular, and the highest point on the ribs 11 abuts against the base 1, thereby limiting the ejection direction of the push block 4 while reducing the contact area between the push block 4 and the base 1, reducing frictional resistance, and thereby improving the ice-breaking force.

[0033] Preferably, a cover plate 8 is provided on the base 1, and the cover plate 8 covers the compression spring 6 to prevent the compression spring 6 and the push rod from popping out of the shell during operation and affecting the ice-breaking effect, while covering and protecting the execution module 3 to improve the aesthetics; the convex rib 11 can also be arranged on the upper part of the push block 4 to abut the cover plate 8 to further improve stability.

[0034] Preferably, the compression spring 6 and the push block 4 have the same actuation direction. At the moment when the push block 4 is pushed out, the compression spring 6 releases the spring force to exert a force in the same direction on the push block 4, thereby increasing the potential energy of the push block 4 being pushed out and improving the ice-breaking effect.

[0035] Preferably, a rocker arm 12 is provided on the base 1, a through hole 13 is provided on the rocker arm 12, a lever 14 is provided at the end of the handle 2, the lever 14 passes through and abuts the through hole 13, the lever 14 is perpendicular to the handle 2, the through hole 13 is provided with a circumferential extended edge 17, the extended edge 17 abuts the lever 14, thereby increasing the contact area between the through hole 13 and the lever 14, thereby increasing the stability of the force of the rocker arm 12 on the lever 14, which is beneficial to the opening and hiding of the handle 2, the push block 4 abuts the rocker arm 12, and the rocker arm 12 drives the handle 2 from the closed position to the open position, thereby realizing the function of the execution module 3 controlling the opening and closing of the handle 2 by exerting force on the rocker arm 12 and driving the rocker arm 12.

[0036] Preferably, a rotating shaft 15 is provided between the rocker arm 12 and the base 1, and a torsion spring 16 is sleeved on the rotating shaft 15. The torsion spring 16 resets the rocker arm 12, and the torsion spring 16 drives the handle 2 from the open position to the closed position, thereby realizing the function of automatically switching the handle 2 from the open position to the closed position.

[0037] Preferably, a convex groove is provided on the rotating edge of the rocker arm 12, and a guide groove 18 is provided on the base 1. The convex groove abuts against the guide groove 18 to guide the rotation process of the rocker arm 12, thereby improving the stability of the rotation of the rocker arm 12.

[0038] This specific embodiment is merely an explanation of the present invention and is not a limitation of the present invention. After reading this specification, those skilled in the art may make non-creative modifications to the present embodiment as needed, but such modifications are protected by patent law as long as they are within the scope of the claims of the present invention.
